    If we're talking which film I'd rather watch, I'd easily choose LTK and DAD

    DAD is a PoS but it's a fun PoS

    Sanchez is one of my favourite villains,much much better than Silva.

    Easy choices I’m afraid.

    TSWLM > AVTAK

    CR > GE

    Agreed, Fox.

    TSWLM vs AVTAK - A thrashing I'm afraid. Sir Rog at the top of his game in the earlier iconic outing vs a man who was well past his prime in his final film. Not even worth explaining.

    GE vs CR - this is probably the closest choice I've had to make yet in this thread. Wafer thin margin. Both superb outings directed masterfully by Campbell, one of the great Bond directors. I am giving CR the win this time, but honestly this could go the other way on another day. GE continues to move up my rankings each year while CR has seen some slippage of late due to the connectivity narrative which has tainted the Craig era for me. Both have been perennial top ten entries since their respective releases.

    TSWLM vs AVTAK

    and

    GE vs CR This was a tough one for me. GE is perhaps my favourite Bond film but I honestly believe that CR is the better film.

    Your honesty does you credit.

    TSWLM, no contest.

    CR wins by a much closer margin. Both are highly enjoyable entries that reside in my top ten. CR is just better.

    TSWLM over AVTAK by a large margin.

    CR over GE. This is the only case where I prefer another Bond’s outing to any Brosnan entry. My #4 vs my #5, the rest on up is solid Brosnan. It mainly comes down to my absolute hatred for Xenia. Nevertheless this was a hard choice.

    CR

    There's just no comparisons-- and I LOVE AVTAK as a guilty pleasure (and Walken's amazing turn as a Bond villain)...

    Lately, Dalton's two Bond films has superseded GE and the Brozz era. Why?... GE looks like it's straining to be relevant (and the other films cut n paste the fashions of the day).

    TSWLM over AVTAK.
    CR over GE.

    CR over the other three combined.

    @Thunderball -- yes, I agree. CR stomps them out. And all it took was a seatless chair and a thick, phallic-looking rope...

    TSWLM easily

    GE by the slimmest possible margin. They are 1A and 1B in my rankings. GE wins only by nostaglia. But CR is much more entertaining for me on all levels.

    TSWLM and GE.

    I know most people will go for CR here, but I prefer GE in every single aspect except for the Bond girl.

    I'd rather watch AVTAK . CR and GE is like choosing a favourite child…depends on my mood. GE for nostalgia's sake

    AVTAK and CR for me!
    I find TSWLM over-rated and GE not anywhere close to CRs excellence!

    AVTAK, in fact AVTAK is my favourite and TSWLM currently my least favourite RM Bond film. Apart from five great scenes (parachute, Lotus going under water) I just can't see the greatness of it.

    GE, CR might be the better film but GE is more entertaining.

    Despite my new found appreciation of GE, this is a relatively straightforward round.

    TWSLM
